The Vietnamese Women's Museum and Fine Arts Museum are two intriguing finds in Hanoi. The One-Pillar Pagoda is one of the country's most iconic temples, and is also located in Hanoi. Outside of the city is another famous landmark, the Perfume Temple, nestled in the Huong Tich Mountains and offering magnificent views.
In Ho Chi Minh City, the Reunification Palace tells the story of the country's transformation in the 1960s. The Museum of Vietnamese History is also well worth a visit. The city is particularly diverse, not least in its religious institutions, which include Notre Dame Cathedral and the Central Mosque. Other locations, such as the city of Da Nang, feature amazing sights like the Marble Mountains just beyond the city limits, and ancient treasures in the Cham Museum.
